Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It was a large triangle shaped object with 3 lights on as it was facing us. It was very low, about 150 to 175 ft. off of the ground (using the firetower as a good refference point for hight). It was all black with no markings of any kind. It showered us with a blue light that was so bright , that came down from right under the cockpit , or where the cockpit should be. as it turned and flew slowly away again with no sound except a sound like a soft wind blowing, I could see a row of about 7 lights lining the whole length of the ship. I do not know how big the ship was but it did cover the entire yard and house, (1300 sq ft house).

Size of Object(s)

Do not know , was very big and very low . It was bigger than the 1300 sq ft house and the yard , half an acre I suppose.

Description of Area / Surroundings

This area was mostly woods and forest for about 2 miles, Now there are houses all down the road , and the firetower has since been moved. There is a nuclear power plant about 25 miles northwest of here.

Full Description & Details

It was in sep , and we had just got back from Camden. It was about 7 or 7:30 p.m. We had just pulled up to my friends house. For people that don't know what a fire tower is . It is a 112 ft. high tower that was used to pinpoint forest fires, they were used untill the early 1990's. This is where my friend lived . We had just got out of the car and saw lights in the trees moving up, there was complete silence. No dogs were barking or any other sound. I asked if they were seeing too , just to make sure. We all saw it. As it moved from the cover of the trees , it started moving toward us. It was so low I thought it was going to ram into the fire tower. I asked if there was a flashlight in the car , there was , I flashhed it about 3 times and it flashed a beam of light so bright that it lit up the whole area. It was an awesome blue beam that blinded us for at least 2 minutes. It slowly turned southeast and moved silently as before . It seemed like only a few minutes but , we went inside and the clocks said 9:15 pm. I don't know what happened to the time. Like I said it only seemed like a few minutes.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

no, it seemed to last only a couple , maybe 5 minutes but took almost 2 hours from the time we got out of the car to get to the house, my watch was 2 hours off also.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I believe there are ships that I can't explain out there. I have seen this one . I was looking on the internet looking for a simular case and sighting of this craft. I found one on youtube that looked exactly like the one I seen.
